Dear English community,
My name is Pavel Vlcek, I am 30 years old, I am from Czech republic and I am totally blind. I am married. My wife is also blind and on a wheelchair. Now, let me introduce my project, which starts in Czech republic, but has fans in the world, especially in Holand.
Imagine you walk to a place where are few parked vehicles from different periods of history (For now i have white Škoda 120L from year 1986 and blue Škoda 100L from year 1976.) All cars are fully functional and you will can touch them, sit in them and feel the scent of interier, benzine and enjoy the sound of the motor. I will introduce the cars to you and tell you differences between them. Next, there will be shelfs on the walls, or tables, with many car parts (Distributor, starter, motor and many more). All parts will be properly marked with description in Braille for people with vision problems. And when you will hold that part, i will tell you what this part do in the car and where it is. After that, we will open the hood of the cars and look at the whole motor. At the end, i will do some quiz about the cars, for fun.

I also have an Youtube channels, but with English subtitles only.
Why am I writing to English community? I must to train English, so I need to communicate as much as possible.
Thanks,
Pavel

This sounds very unique and interesting! So is it basically a kind of an interactive exhibition of somesort? If yes, how is it popular in other countries? Are you touring with all these cars to different places, or only the visitors go there and you are always at one place?

At this time, I have cars in one place, but it may change in future. I must also choose a better place.

This is really awesome.
All that I survey, I could easily destroy. From time to time, it is important to remind these small creatures of the true extent of my power. Charlie for Admin

I could see something like this being popular in Britain and North America. If you wanted to monitise, having it available to blind visitors would be nice, but you might also want to allow blindfold quizes to sighted car enthusiasts
